Hollywood doesn't have the class, vision nor talent to come within lightyears of producing a film that will even come close.

Not today's Hollyweird, true. But the old Hollywood did turn out some really terrific films with religious themes once upon a time. The Robe, Ben Hur, The Song of Bernadette, It's a Wonderful Life, The Sound of Music, Carousel, and the one where Cary Grant plays an angel named Dudley, all come immediately to mind.

Oh agreed - absolutely. .45MAN and I only began our boycott of Hollywierd during the 2000 election and spewing of the self-appointed political geniuses such as Alec Blowhard Baldwin, Sean Pinhead, ad nauseum.

Prior to that, I was a movie junkie. Since then, The "Passion" was the first time I have stepped foot in a theater in almost 3 and a half years. I refuse to support their liberal tripe.

That Cary Grant movie you're thinking of is The Bishop's Wife. It was later remade as the The Preacher's Wife, with Denzel Washington and Whitney Huston. The next remake will be The Minister's Life Partner, starring Nathan Lane, Harvey Fierstein, and RuPaul as the angel (j/k. Better not give Hollywood any ideas).
